I got a 12V elec fan replacing the standard viscous centre fan (because the turbo would hit it if I kept it in there). When you turn the key to IGN, the fan comes on straight away, in other words it's routed to run full-time. How do I get this sorted out so it ran only when needed like before? A relay or something simple like that again?

Sorry to thread-hijack... Razz


You can just buy a thermostat kit... It is just a temperature switch with a brass sensor you tap into your radiator hose...

Connect it to the fan and to 12v (either live or ignition depending on how you want it to run). Get your car to normal operating temperature and turn the knob until your fan starts...

Thats it!!!
